MIPS (32-bit) nlink_t sign Message-ID: <20030118033435.GC18282@bjl1.asuk.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.4i Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Linux/MIPS32 is unusual in that its type of nlink_t is signed. In the header , the 32-bit compatibility type for nlink_t is defined as unsigned. Perhaps this is because the MIPS 64-bit nlink_t is always unsigned. Which header is correct - and which should be changed for consistency - or ? Stephen, I guess you have already figured this out with your recent 32-bit compatibility cleanup? cheers, -- Jamie
